Thinking of selling the Corsa and getting one, would prefer one with half leather or full leather, not the velour crap.. wot year (reg) were either introduced? And could anyone tell me the good and bad points of these?!

I think leather came in on S reg, not entirely sure though, look to www.peugeot-gti.net.
Pro's
Quick -0-60 7.4 , 0-100 in about 21, will surprise a lot of cars.
Rev highly 7200rpm
Excellent handling
Leather seats
Getting quite cheap now
Cons
Rattly
Wind noise at high speed
Made of tinfoil-Dent quite easily, ive got a few carpark style dents.
Cramped pedals, although i have big wide feet and have got used to it.
They are not for everyone, you have to be a bit of a minimalist-not bothered about comfort, luxury etc. Definitely a raw fun car, really begs you to rev the tits of it, which you need to do to get the best out of them.
I like them

ahh just wot I was after, nice one mate! Well corsa's, saxo's etc all tend to have cramped pedals so thats no issue. I know they're nippy and rev quite freely. I want the leather seats, coz I like u said they are quite basic inside so leather seats wud keep me quiet, lol!! Thanks again pal
Any1 else got ne opinions/advice for me?

good little cars although they do dent very easily as I found out after a recent heavy hail storm 
cracking engine, go for a later one, 99 on if u can as they have different head gaskets and leather. Just need lowering from standard and you've got a good looking quick car.
